Baseball Adds 15 for 2014 Season

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia University baseball coach Randy Mazey announced the signing of 15 student-athletes to National Letters of Intent on Wednesday morning. The signees will join Mazey’s squad next fall to prepare for the 2014 season.

“I am extremely excited about the student-athletes we signed in the early signing period,” coach Randy Mazey says. “After a late start recruiting the 2013 class, coach (Derek) Matlock and coach (Steven) Trout worked tirelessly to put together an outstanding class that we feel will help us compete in the Big 12 as soon as they arrive on campus.”

Eight of the 15 signees will join the team out of high school, including four from Texas, one from Illinois, one from Ohio, one from Pennsylvania and one from Virginia. The Mountaineers added seven junior college prospects.
